Folks any reasons that the USB modem driver must be in the kernel?

I am not familiar with the USB side of the things but it would be best if the driver could be done in user space (plus this gives you the ability to load file information).

Hi,

I'm writing a driver for a USB modem. The driver needs to read a file with
preferences when the user connects. I haven't been able to find any
documentation on how to do this in kernel mode but from reading a couple of
LINUX ng's I've come to understand that there might be a problem doing this.

Does anyone know what would be the right way to do this? (a usermode process
sending ioctls with the preferences will not work in this case)
